Is Yulman Stadium going to have blind spots?

I think you answered the title question in your OP.

Im happy for Tulane, I hope they can keep it packed out.

Ready by this year? Where is it?

There won't ever be enough people at the game to have to sit in those spots

I guess they assumed you can see through the walkway, but you know they are gonna have some douches standing right against that railing.

ETA- I plan to make some games there that don't interfere with the LSU schedule.

What do you mean by "flanking"? Judging by your red circles, are you saying the press box will block the view of the seats right next to it?
Lord I hope not.

is it grass or turf?

Other than the first game or two, it's not like the stadium will be filled. Those people can move.

And, before the West Upper Deck was rebuilt, Tiger Stadium had similar blind spots right around the old pressbox. When I was at LSU, all student seating was general admission. So, whenever it looked like it was going to rain, our group of friends would get to the game real early, wait in line (usually at the front), and make a dash to the West Upper overhang. Of course, we would go tape all of our alcohol under those seats the night before. There were a couple times when we sat in those blind spot seats. But, we never got wet!
